Our recent letter to @BrooksLaSureCMS calls on states & CMS to prioritize health care workforce investments, because having enough providers who accept #Medicaid patients is critical 1st step toward meeting our shared goal of timely access to care. https://t.co/iGoeTct0nx

The Debt Ceiling bill has passed without any harmful impact to Medicaid services! Thank you to Congress for preserving access to essential healthcare. Together, let's continue building a stronger, inclusive healthcare system! #DebtCeiling #MedicaidMatters

[Partnership4Medicaid @P4Medicaid]

Combining Medicaid "unwinding" with work requirements hurts access to care, strains providers, and leads to uncompensated care. We stand for thoughtful reforms driven by better outcomes, protecting beneficiaries' interests because #MedicaidMatters

Work requirements burden enrollees and state systems. In 2024, 1.7 million Medicaid enrollees may not meet work/reporting requirements, leaving them uninsured.

Just one more piece of research that illustrates the need for more Medicaid fiscal relief for states:

Great news for #Medicaid as Congress has agreed to restore Medicaid benefits for Marshall Islanders living in the U.S. - a win that comes after two decades of persistence. #MedicaidMonday

[POLITICO @politico]

Marshall Islanders have sought to correct an oversight that denied them federal health benefits for nearly 25 years. https://t.co/ivi8rIVufY

The newly released 2020 edition of the MACStats #Medicaid and #CHIP Data Book shows increased enrollment in #Medicaid and #CHIP by about 5.6 percent from July 2019 to July 2020, due in large part to the economic downturn of the #COVID19 pandemic. #MedicaidMonday

[MACPAC @macpacgov]

ICYMI: The 2020 edition of MACStats: #Medicaid and CHIP Data Book is out. Packed full of data and insights. It’s truly the most wonderful time of the year! https://t.co/twTbtxCFPD

ICYMI: @P4Medicaid urges Congress to include critical #Medicaid provisions in the next #COVID19 package, including an increased #FMAP to 12 percent and equitable relief for Medicaid and other #safetynetproviders.

Women in most states lose #Medicaid coverage 60 days after delivery. The @P4Medicaid encourages congressional leadership to enact the #HelpingMomsAct to allow states the option to extend Medicaid coverage one year postpartum. #DoMoreForMoms

#SCOTUS will determine whether @HHS has the authority to allow states to impose #Medicaidworkrequirements after a federal appeals court unanimously struck them down in Feb. After Arkansas imposed work requirements in 2018, more than 18,000 enrollees lost coverage. #MedicaidMonday

[NYT Politics @nytpolitics]

The Supreme Court on Friday agreed to decide whether the Trump administration may impose work requirements on Medicaid recipients, an issue that could become moot if the Biden administration eliminates the requirements https://t.co/0g8KWK992u

Timely access to care is lifesaving in medical emergencies. A new @JamaNetworkOpen study finds states that did not expand #Medicaid under the #ACA experienced worsened emergency access to acute care hospitals compared to states that did expand Medicaid. #MedicaidMonday

[JAMA Network Open @JAMANetworkOpen]

Cross-sectional study finds state non-expansion of Medicaid under the #ACA is associated with more difficult emergency access to hospital care; 421k people in non-expansion states no longer live within 30 min of the nearest hospital. @PittCCM https://t.co/yWOOHmq7xb
